Hi Andreas, Eliot,

Thank you very much for this effort, for funding it, and for making it 
available to the community!

Can you tell a bit more about "float inlining"? I guess you're talking 
about immediate (unboxed) floats, right? That could mean no longer need 
to do plugins for numerical stuff. I would love to have that!

Cheers,
